Who It’s For

The Discovery Pallet Wrapper is built for warehouses and dispatch areas that have outgrown a single fixed wrap cycle, where different pallet weights, heights and film requirements move through the same dispatch bay every day. Instead of one manual setting, the operator programs exactly where the wrap starts, finishes, and reinforces in the middle, then recalls that exact program instantly the next time a matching pallet comes through.

Applications

It suits medium-volume dispatch — distribution centres, manufacturers and 3PLs wrapping a genuine mix of pallet profiles through the day, from low, wide loads to tall, unstable ones — where a single fixed cycle would either under-wrap some pallets or waste film over-wrapping others. Load the saved program that matches the pallet, press start, and the machine repeats it precisely every time.

Main Benefits

Because start, middle, and end wrap positions are fully programmable and the machine memorises between 6 and 99 wrap cycles, operators aren’t reconfiguring settings by hand for every pallet type — they select a saved program and the machine does the rest. Specified with an MPS or MPS2 motorized pre-stretch carriage, it also applies film under tension more efficiently than a mechanical-brake system, cutting film consumption further on every wrap.

What You Save & Gain

For the business, that adds up to fewer over- or under-wrapped pallets, lower film spend from motorized pre-stretch, and a wrap quality that stays consistent no matter which saved program is running or who presses start. It’s the configurability that matters here — one machine, many pallet profiles, and a repeatable result every time.

Specifications at a Glance

Running at 12 RPM with a 2,000kg load rating and 500mm film width, the Discovery handles heavier and more varied loads than the SIMPLY, while its programmable cycle takes over the repeat-setup work a manual machine can’t. It runs on standard 230V single-phase power and can be specified with different mast heights, a top platen, and scales to match your operation.

Which Model Is Right for You

If your pallets are consistent and one operator manually starts a single fixed cycle, the simpler SIMPLY Pallet Wrapper may be all you need. If you want programmability without the full configuration range of the Discovery, it’s worth comparing against the SAVING Pallet Wrapper before deciding.

Backed By AWC

Every Discovery Pallet Wrapper is backed by AWC’s in-house technical team for installation, servicing, and spare parts — so you’re not left waiting on an overseas manufacturer if something needs attention.

01
Automatic Height-Sensing Photocell

A photocell reads each load's height before the cycle starts, so the machine sets its own wrap height instead of the operator measuring by eye.

02
Independent Inverter-Controlled Speeds

The turntable and film carriage run on separate inverters with a gradual, adjustable start, so unstable or top-heavy loads don't shift as the cycle begins.

03
MPS / MPS2 Motorized Pre-Stretch Carriage

Available with an MPS carriage (interchangeable pre-stretch ratio) or MPS2 (ratio variable via two motors), applying film under consistent tension for a tighter wrap with less film used per pallet.

04
Programmable Start / Middle / End Wrap Positions

Set exactly where the wrap cycle begins, where it reinforces mid-pallet, and where it finishes — the machine repeats that same pattern precisely on every cycle.

05
Digital Panel — 6 to 99 Memorized Programs

Save between 6 and 99 wrap programs on the control panel and recall the right one instantly for each pallet profile, without reconfiguring settings by hand.

06
Configurable Mast Height, Top Platen & Scales

Order with a mast height to suit your typical pallet stack, and add a top platen or integrated scales as options to match the rest of your dispatch process.

07
Five Carriage Builds, Including Zephyr Auto-Hooking

Specify MB (mechanical brake), EB (electromagnetic clutch), MPS or MPS2 motorized pre-stretch, or the newer Zephyr carriage with automatic film-hooking to suit throughput and film-tension needs.

08
Extensive Selectable Cycle Functions

Choose from top-sheet application, multi-layer, high-stability, ergonomic (easy film attachment) and eco cycles, plus wraps starting from a preset height or with mid-pallet reinforcement.

09
DeTouch Remote Monitoring & PKG Cloud Option

Add PKG's DeTouch remote control and monitoring technology or the PKG Cloud web app to track machine status, servicing, and rental management remotely.

Why Warehouses Choose AWC Pallet Wrappers

Hand-wrapping doesn't scale. Every pallet takes a person, every wrap comes out a little different, and every busy day puts more strain on both. Here's what changes when you automate it.

20-35% less film used

Powered pre-stretch applies film under tension as it wraps, typically using 20-35% less film than wrapping the same load by hand.

60-90 sec / pallet

A machine-wrapped pallet is done in roughly 60-90 seconds against several minutes by hand — it adds up fast once you're wrapping dozens a shift.

Lower injury risk

Hand-wrapping is a repetitive, twisting motion that WHS bodies flag as a manual handling risk. Automating the wrap removes the operator from it entirely.

Local service & support

Every machine is installed, serviced, and supported by AWC's own technicians out of Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane — not an overseas reseller waiting weeks on parts.

Discovery Pallet Wrapper FAQs

It means you set exactly where on the pallet the wrap cycle begins, where it reinforces with extra wraps partway up (or wherever the load needs it most), and where it finishes — rather than the machine running one fixed pattern top to bottom. Once set, the machine repeats that exact pattern on every cycle.

Between 6 and 99, depending on configuration. Each saved program can match a different pallet profile, so an operator switching between load types through the day just selects the right program instead of reconfiguring settings by hand.

Both are motorized pre-stretch carriages that stretch the film before it’s applied, using less film per pallet than an unstretched wrap. MPS has an interchangeable pre-stretch ratio; MPS2 uses two motors so the ratio can be varied on the fly. Which one suits your operation depends on how much the pre-stretch ratio needs to change between loads — our team can talk through the right spec for your site.

2,000kg max load, running 500mm film at 12 RPM on standard 230V single-phase power. It can also be ordered with different mast heights, a top platen, and scales as options — let us know your typical pallet height and weight range and we’ll confirm the right configuration.

The SIMPLY runs a single fixed, manual-start cycle with no programming. The SAVING adds a programmable cycle with adjustable tension, rotation speed, and top/bottom wrap settings. The Discovery goes further again — fully programmable start/middle/end wrap positions, 6 to 99 memorized programs, a higher 2,000kg load rating, and optional MPS/MPS2 motorized pre-stretch — making it the right step up if you’re wrapping several different pallet profiles and want each one wrapped exactly the same way, every time. See the full spec comparison in the Comparison Guide tab.

Delivery and installation timeframes depend on your chosen configuration (mast height, top platen, scales, and MPS/MPS2 carriage). We’ll confirm an exact timeframe once we understand your site access, power setup, and the configuration you need.

2 years parts and labour as standard, with a 5-year extended warranty available. See the Maintenance Guide tab above for the full service schedule and what’s covered.
